Got my EVGA GTX 570 SC and I must say that I'm not reallly happy. My temps: 46°C idle, 89 °C under load and the noise sounds for me like a hair dryer. Could You please post Your brand, temps and noise level as I'm looking for a GTX 570 with bearable temps and noise? Or should I change to GTX 580?

What about your ambient temps? Do you get good air flow through your case?

I just got my GTX 570 yesterday. I picked up the PNY version. Under stock speeds, mine stays around 40°C idle, 85 °C under load (Crysis & 3DMark 11). Although the radiator heat keeps my apartment is a bit too warm though. When I crack my windows and cool my place down to something comfortable, I noticed my idle temps drop to 34°C.

As for noise, i'd say it's pretty quiet. Much more quiet than my old 9800GTX that it replaced.

This is really funny. Shivering for a good tempered video card. My airflow is good as I dont dare to put on the heating even in winter for my rig not becoming feverish.
It seems to me by now that these temps and noise are normal for this model.
